Law School Glossary
A short list of frequently used acronyms and terms relevant to LLMs.
ABA – The American Bar Association, a bar association of lawyers based in Washington D.C., which sets widely adopted standards for legal education and professional legal practice in the United States. This organization also provides perhaps the most influential accreditation for law schools nationwide.
ETS – Educational Testing Service, a US-based non-profit organization widely known for producing standardized exams such as the TOEFL, which is a common requirement for non-native English-speaking applicants to law schools in the United States and abroad.
FAFSA – Free Application for Federal Student Aid is a form submitted by students of US universities who are seeking financial aid from the US government. The FAFSA form is designed to ascertain a student’s Expected Family Contribution (EFC), a figure that determines which need-based government grants and subsidized loans a student can apply for.
GPA – Stands for Grade Point Average, the most common quantitative measure of overall undergraduate academic achievement.
IELTS – International English Language Testing System, a common, English-language proficiency exam. Many English-speaking universities and law schools in Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa request that non-native English speakers submit satisfactory IELTS results when applying.
JD – Abbreviation for the Latin term Juris Doctor, used in the United States to refer to professional law degree that the vast majority of LL.M students acquire before embarking on their LL.M. degree. Although it is mostly considered to be a postgraduate degree -- completed after undergraduate studies -- it is not actually a doctorate degree as the name might suggest.
Joint Degree / Dual Degree Program - Refers to programs offered by some universities in which students can pursue two degrees simultaneously. Common dual degree programmes include those leading to a combined J.D. / LL.M., or a joint Master’s degree program, such as a combined LL.M. / MBA.
LLB – Refers to Bachelor of Laws, the term used throughout much of the English-speaking world (though not the United States, where the term Juris Doctor is broadly used) to refer to the academic degree leading to professional practice in law. The LL.B is most often a three-year degree pursued after the completion of an undergraduate / bachelor’s degree. Possession of an LL.B. or J.D. degree is a requirement for candidacy for the bar association or law society, and often for participation in an LL.M. program.
LSAC – The Law School Admissions Council (LSAC) is a US-based non-profit organization whose membership includes over 200 US and Canadian law schools. The LSAC administers the LSAT exam. It also operates the Law School Data Assembly Service (LSDAS).
LSDAS – The Law School Data Assembly Service (LSDAS) is operated by the LSAC. The LSDAS collects application material (including test scores, undergraduate transcripts, essays, and letters of recommendation) from law school applicants. The LSAC then compiles this information into reports, which it sends directly to law schools on behalf of the applicant. Some law schools in the United States require that applicants use this paid service. The LSAC also provides an LL.M. Credential Assembly Service for international students intending to apply for LL.M. programs in the United States.
LSAT – Otherwise known as the Law School Admissions Test, the LSAT is a standarized exam the results of which are required for admission into most law schools in North America. LSAT results are currently only required from applicants to J.D. programs, and generally not from applicants to LL.M. programs who have already completed their first law degree.
TOEFL – Stands for the Test of English as a Foreign Language. The TOEFL is a standardized examination of English-language proficiency that non-native English-speaking applicants must often take before acceptance to English-speaking universities. The test is administered by the Educational Testing Service.

About the LSAT
The Law School Admission Test (LSAT) is a half-day standardized test required for admission to all ABA–approved law schools, most Canadian law schools, and many non–ABA–approved law schools. It provides a standard measure of acquired reading and verbal reasoning skills that law schools can use as one of several factors in assessing applicants. The test is administered four times a year at hundreds of locations around the world.
About the LSAT Photo
Many law schools require that the LSAT be taken by December for admission the following fall. However, taking the test earlier—in June or October—is often advised.
Some schools place greater weight than others on the LSAT; most law schools do evaluate your full range of credentials.
Test Format
The test consists of five 35-minute sections of multiple-choice questions, in three different item types. Four of the five sections contribute to the test taker’s score. The unscored section, commonly referred to as the variable section, typically is used to pretest new test questions or to preequate new test forms. The placement of this section will vary. A 35-minute writing sample is administered at the end of the test. LSAC does not score the writing sample, but copies of the writing sample are sent to all law schools to which you apply.
What the Test Measures
The LSAT is designed to measure skills that are considered essential for success in law school: the reading and comprehension of complex texts with accuracy and insight; the organization and management of information and the ability to draw reasonable inferences from it; the ability to think critically; and the analysis and evaluation of the reasoning and arguments of others.
The three multiple-choice question types in the LSAT are:
1. Reading Comprehension Questions
These questions measure your ability to read, with understanding and insight, examples of lengthy and complex materials similar to those commonly encountered in law school work. The reading comprehension section contains four sets of reading questions, each consisting of a selection of reading material, followed by five to eight questions that test reading and reasoning abilities.
2. Analytical Reasoning Questions
These questions are designed to measure your ability to understand a structure of relationships and to draw logical conclusions about that structure. You are asked to make deductions from a set of statements, rules, or conditions that describe relationships among entities such as persons, places, things, or events. They simulate the kinds of detailed analyses of relationships that a law student must perform in solving legal problems.
3. Logical Reasoning Questions
These questions are designed to evaluate your ability to understand, analyze, criticize, and complete a variety of arguments. Each logical reasoning question requires you to read and comprehend a short passage, then answer one question about it. The questions test a variety of abilities involved in reasoning logically and thinking critically.
PLEASE NOTE:
Almost all ABA–approved law schools also require that you register for the Law School Data Assembly Service (LSDAS). To find out if you are required to register for LSDAS, see LSDAS Candidate Requirements.
The registration fee for the LSAT is $123. If you meet certain criteria, you may qualify for an LSAC fee waiver. Late registrants must pay an additional $62.
If you register for a specific LSAT administration during the regular registration period, you are not eligible for late registration for that same administration. Once you have registered for a test during the regular registration period, you may not withdraw or cancel your registration and reregister for that same test during the late registration period.
Saturday Sabbath observers administrations. If you observe a Saturday Sabbath, you may take the LSAT on Mondays following the regular Saturday administrations or Monday, June 16, 2008. To request a Saturday Sabbath observers administration, you must obtain a letter on official stationery from your minister or rabbi confirming your religious affiliation.
Requesting a Nonpublished Test Center
If it is impossible for you to travel to a test center listed in LSAC online registration, and you are located over 100 miles from an open, published center, you may request that LSAC establish a nonpublished test center.

The LSDAS provides a means of centralizing and standardizing undergraduate academic records to simplify the law school admission process.
Nearly all ABA-approved law schools (and some non-ABA-approved schools) in the United States require that their applicants register for the Law School Data Assembly Service (LSDAS). Canadian law schools and Melbourne Law School in Australia do not participate in the LSDAS and do not require its use.
The LSDAS prepares a report for each law school to which you apply. The report contains information that is important in the law school admission process. Your report will include:
* An undergraduate academic summary
* Copies of all undergraduate, graduate, and law/professional school transcripts
* LSAT scores and writing sample copies
* Copies of Letters of Recommendation processed by LSAC
Your LSDAS registration also includes access to electronic applications for all ABA-approved law schools.
Your LSDAS period will extend for five years from your registration date. If you register for a Law School Admission Test (LSAT) at any time during your LSDAS period, the LSDAS period will be extended five years from your latest LSAT registration.
Under some circumstances, the LSDAS requirement may be waived. For more information, see Exceptions to the LSDAS Requirement.
If you are an applicant who has been educated outside of the US, its territories, or Canada you may or may not be required to register for the LSDAS.

Applying to Law School
The law school application process generally begins during the first term of the students' junior year or two years prior to applying. The process consists of choosing law schools and filling out the law school applications, taking the Law School Admissions Test (LSAT), writing a personal statement and additional essays (optional and not available with all law schools), preparing a resume, sending transcripts, and choosing recommenders to write letters of recommendation.
UCS offers pre-law advising regarding the law school application process, as well as, offers guidance for those individuals considering a career in law. These services are available for current students and alumni. In addition to pre-law advising, UCS has also gathered and posted the information below to assist in the application process. The information listed is not comprehensive, and it is advised that students first review the website material and then set up a pre-law advising appointment by contacting the UCS reception desk at 203.432.0800.

The Application
Applications can be obtained from the law schools in several forms. Those students who prefer paper copies can call the admissions offices directly and ask that materials be sent to them. Those students who prefer to obtain materials via the web can do so in two ways. Students who register with LSDAS can apply to law schools directly through the service, or students can download application materials from the website.
TOP
Law School Admissions Test (LSAT)
The LSAT is a half-day, standardized test administered four times each year at designated testing centers throughout the world. It is required that you take this test as part of the application process for ABA- approved law schools. The test consists of five 35-minute sections of multiple-choice questions, including one reading comprehension section, one analytical reasoning section, and two logical reasoning sections. An additional section, known as the unscored or variable section is typically used to pretest new test questions or pre-equate new test forms. *
UCS advises that students sign up for the LSAT as soon as they are certain they are applying to law schools. Students should take the LSAT no later than the fall of their senior year (year prior to attending law school). It is highly recommended that students take it sooner if they feel prepared to do so. While UCS does not endorse preparation courses or materials for the LSAT, the office does provide sample tests for students to utilize. Contact the UCS office at prelaw.ucs@yale.edu, or 203.432.0800 for further information regarding the sample tests.
Information regarding test dates, deadlines, and fees can be viewed on the Law School Admissions Council at www.lsac.org. Copies of the 2007-2008 LSAT and LSDAS Information Book are available in the UCS Library.

Writing the Law School Personal Statement*
Since most law schools do not include an interview as part of the application process, your personal statement is the only chance you have to "speak" directly to the admissions committee. It is best if you use this limited space to sell yourself, rather than as a place to "explain" a low grade or any other less than perfect aspect of your application. Effective personal statements usually read more like a story and less like a narrative resume. Be sure to write several drafts, and have several readers before finalizing your statement.
The Dos
Have a strong first sentence.
Write well--make it flow.
Keep it a reasonable length (2 pages).
Be specific and accurate.
Be truthful.
Have the statement support and be supported by the rest of your application.
Turn negatives into positives.
Mention sensitive subjects in an appropriate way, if you choose to disclose them.
Treat this statement like a 5 minute interview with the law school. Tell them what you're all about.
Type double-spaced and have good margins.
Make sure ink is dark enough.
Have several readers review your statement.
Put your name and LSAC number on each page after reviews.
The Dont's
Overuse the thesaurus.
Use cliches or quote others extensively.
Misspell words. Use your spell-checker, but don't rely on it completely!
Use the third person.
Title your statement.
Send multimedia presentations or accompanying photos.
Gush about law school or the role of law in society.
Be too cynical.
Come across as a "victim".
Be too specific about what you want to do with your law degree, unless your experience shows that it is a logical extension of what you've already done.
Focus too much on another person, even if they have been influential in your life.
Just list the activities and experiences that are already in your application.
* From the National Association of Prelaw Advisors
TOP
Transcripts, Resumes, and Dean's Certification
Transcripts
Transcripts from each higher education institution, both undergraduate and graduate schools, need to be sent directly to the Law School Admissions Council. For information regarding transcripts, specifically foreign transcripts, visit the LSAC website.
Resumes
A resume should be submitted with your law school application. The resume can be up to two pages in length. It is advised that students use the two full pages if possible, elaborating on their experiences and education. Students can have their resumes reviewed by a pre-law advisor by setting up an appointment with the UCS receptionist, 203.432.0800.
Dean Certification
Dean Certification is need for only a handful of law schools, and will be indicated on the application. A written request listing the names and addresses of the law schools must be sent or hand-delivered to the Dean's Office in order to have the certification sent to each law school requested.
TOP
Letters of Recommendation
Students should arrange to have three letters of recommendation for their application file. Two of the letters should be from individuals who can speak about the student's intellectual prowess and accomplishments within the classroom. An additional letter should be from someone who can speak about the student's character, focusing on your professionalism, enthusiasm, initiative, work ethic, and interests.
When considering recommenders, students should keep in mind, that it is better to ask someone who knows them well, rather than someone who is well-known. Once recommenders are chosen it is important to provide them with relevant information such as a resume, a transcript, a personal essay, a list of topics discussed in their class, or a list of projects and papers completed to aid them in writing a well-informed letter of recommendation.
Make sure to ask recommenders well in advance to write the letters, and make sure to send a thank you once the letters have been received. If you have questions or would like assistance in choosing your recommenders, set-up an appointment with a pre-advisor, 203.432.0800.
